BurningButter!

Congrats! I got my approval and surgery date yesterday and it's also June 1st. Yay us!

Any update on the windows app for the Windows Store?? I have a Windows Phone and Surface 3 and it's very frustrating & disappointing that there is no app for Windows. Please make this a priority. Bariatric Pal has been such a help in going through the process!

I'm on the eastern shore just over the bridge in MD. I'm looking to get VSG in the Spring. Anyone care to share where they are having surgery? Also, if you don't mind, how long after approval was your actual surgery if you've already had it? Thanks in advance!

How do you plan your liquid pre-op diet, what kind of things to you stock up on? I'm trying different Protein shakes but that's it. Anyone use anything different? Do you add protein to the other stuff or just eat it as is? Can anyone recommend any brands? Anything I should completely stay away from? I'm still several months out from my surgery but was going to practice the liquid diet to see if I can stick to it so when the time comes it won't be such a big deal.

I've tried a few different kinds of protein powders and I like some more than others but I'm keeping a little bit of everything on hand since I've read that your taste changes after the surgery. My favorite in the morning is the Chike High Protein Coffee. It's very good and not gritty at all. I add some sugar free syrups for different flavor "lattes". I know I could make my own with regular coffee and unflavored protein but for now I'm just sampling as much as I can before surgery so I'll know (or think I'll know) what I can get down.
